Mark Goldstein

Dr. Mark Goldstein is a leading expert in carbon monoxide safety with 29 years of experience. He has many years of experience in toxicity, fires and explosives, he has conducted complex investigations for a major oil company and has worked for a variety plaintiff's and defendant's attorneys. Dr. Goldstein has also worked with RV manufacturers and many other companies. Dr. Goldstein has also work with many plaintiff's attorneys. He has conducted appliance testing, accident reconstruction and forensic analysis.

Dr. Goldstein is President of Quantum Group Inc.; a company that develops, licenses, manufactures and sells carbon monoxide alarms, and develops and licenses catalysts. Quantum Group Inc. has a greater than 50% market share in the RV carbon monoxide alarm business, and also sells to system, residential single station and other markets. Quantum Group private labels alarms for a 25 billion dollar company as well as many other smaller companies. Quantum has licensed its patented technology to over 6 companies in the carbon monoxide alarm industry.

Dr. Goldstein has conducted investigations in carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon spills and leaks, lighting, plastic pipe, failure analysis, combustion, rocket fuel and other personal injuries and wrongful death cases. Dr. Goldstein has given depositions and testimony in many of these cases, and has personal experience in sensing science and has published papers and received patents in this area. He also has years of experience in energy analysis, metal failure analysis and testing, and aircraft oceanography and remote sensing.

In addition, Dr. Goldstein has managed large projects for private American companies, U.S. government agencies, and foreign companies.

Dr. Mark Goldstein has a BS in chemistry from the University of Vermont and a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Miami at Coral Gables, Florida.  He has over 44 patents in the USA and a number of foreign patents as well, and has published over 33 papers in scientific journals and magazines.

Dr. Goldstein was a founder and served as President of the Carbon Monoxide Safety and Heath Association (COSHA) for many years. He also served on Underwriters Laboratory's Standards Technical Panel (STP) of experts and is currently serving on both STP 2034 and STP 2075 panels for carbon monoxide alarms.

Dr. Goldstein has testified in many carbon monoxide deaths in homes, apartments, RVs, boats, planes and the workplace. Dr. Goldstein defended a large oil company in a gasoline leak case in a Colorado neighborhood assessing the human health effect of the people in the homes, he has testified in a organic solvents case, and testified for a lady who fell in a lobby of a hotel, assessing the impact of marginal lighting in a large Hotel Lobby in Lake Tahoe.

Further, Dr. Mark Goldstein has defended companies in carbon monoxide cases on older RVs that had no CO alarms before such alarm were introduced to the RV market in 1990. He consulted on a very large case involving a defective polymer that was settled for billions of dollars without going to trial.
